All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

First, we filled our stomachs at the buffet, then moved on to the hall where the showtime began. Although Michael was a bit small and chubby, he was impressive with his dancing and singing.

最初にビュッフェでお腹を満たして、移動し、ホールでショータイムが始まります。
ちょっと、小さくてぽっちゃりのマイケルだったけど、踊りも歌もうまくて感動しました。

The scenery was absolutely stunning. I never expected to find such a shallow and beautiful spot in the middle of the ocean. During snorkeling, I got to see turtles and fish. I participated in December, and although it was somewhat cold, it was an amazing experience.

とにかく景色が最高だった。海の真ん中にこんなに浅くて綺麗な場所があるなんて思ってもいませんでした。シュノーケリングは、亀にも魚にも会えました。12月の参加でしたが、そこそこ寒いものの、感動ものでした。

There were staff who spoke Japanese, and it was very comfortable. The boat ride to the dive site was almost smooth and refreshing. There was plenty of time for diving, and we were able to see a sunken ship, sea turtles, and divers. There weren't that many fish, but I'm glad I went.

日本語の話せるスタッフもいて、居心地が良かった。ポイントまでの船もほぼ揺れず爽快。潜水時間もたっぷりで、沈没船や海亀やダイバーが見られた。魚はそんなにたくさんいなかったが、行って良かった。

This is my second visit. A few years ago during my first visit, the weather wasn't great, but this time it was a beautifully sunny day! Several crew members spoke Japanese and were very considerate. Snorkeling in the beautiful sea and activities like stand-up paddleboarding became unforgettable memories. Snacks, drinks, and spam musubi were also provided, making it perfect to enjoy while satisfying our little hunger!

2度目の訪問です。
数年前の1度目は天気に恵まれなかったのですが、
今回は晴れたとても美しい日でした！
クルーの皆さんも日本語が話せる方が数人いて、何かと気を遣ってくださいました。
綺麗な海の真ん中でのシュノーケルや、SUPなどは一生の思い出になりました。
スナックや飲み物、スパムむすびなども準備されていて、小腹を満たしながら遊べて最高です！

Beautiful ocean and amazing environment. The performers were great in the tunes and songs they played as well as their positive atmosphere!! the activities available are plenty and so much fun!

Had a blast. The folks on board treated us so well and really gave everyone a good time.

Beautiful space, beautiful people. You can tell that those who work there love their jobs. Great experience and I would definitely go back! Great to learn about all the cultures and the luau topped off a perfect day

We had a blast! Our guides were great and there were tons of photo opportunities.

Uncle Kevin was awesome. Friendly n funny great host/driver. Enjoyed our tour had a great time we did hike to waterfall n kayaking. Worth the money. I would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to enjoy north shore with some history/information. Read in other review that it was rushed but that’s not how it was at all at least not with our driver uncle Kevin.

I suck at swimming but our instructor Kyle made us feel safe and had me in good hands

The staff (captain and 2 mates and life guard) were exceptionally helpful. They explained everything, we’re very prompt and watchful. We saw the turtles at Turtle Canyon…AMAZING! I’m so sorry I don’t remember the crew’s names, but suffice it to say, they were excellent. Reviewed safety cautions and had refreshing beverages for the trip home.

Our Pearl Harbor tour was wonderful! Do it early as it was starting to get hot, and our tour guide Maureen was amazing. She’s a wealth of knowledge!

We booked the all inclusive package and our salon team loved every min! The crew was fantastic and it was an unforgettable experience! Totally worth every penny!

Kaneohe ocean sports at the sandbar was amazing! We started with either glazed or chocolate donuts with lemonade. When we got to the sandbar they had a variety of activities including kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, volleyball and snorkeling. We loved the snorkeling! They took us to an area of the sandbar that was still shallow enough to stand but had plenty of coral to swim around and explore. Staff was friendly and constantly kept watch over the participants, making this a safe and enjoyable environment. Overall would definitely recommend especially for families

Megan, Hollywood and Sarah are amazing guides and made the entire experience super enjoyable for everyone. Thrilling activity if you are scared of heights. Personally, I’m not but still enjoyed the lovely scenery and challenge of learning a new activity.

This is the 2nd time we’ve done this sunset cruise and it lived up to our first experience, which was amazing! Great captain and crew! So much fun and gorgeous views!

We loved our turtle snorkelling experience and the staff were very helpful and friendly! We only wish we had a bit more time in the water but overall a great trip!

Horses were relaxed and enjoyed the ride as much as we did. Great views and interesting history.

It was so much fun for everyone and there was so many things to do! We had a blast and will definitely be back to do it again! The crew, captains and musicians were all awesome and made the excursion awesome! Thank you!!!

Staff were excellent and I would highly recommend that lunch excursion. We upgraded for the banana boat ride for our granddaughters when checking in. We were offered to ride in the boat so that we could get videos of the girls on the ride.
Water was shallow and bit difficult to snorkel.
Parking is at a premium and I had to wait in the lot until someone pulled out.

The VIEW of Waikiki and Aloha Sunset, with booze with friends/cousins is SPECTACULAR. The crew were amazing and the crowd is cool.

Staff was great. Scenery was amazing. Highly recommend it.

My husband and I had a great time. We had plenty of time in the cage and felt 100% safe. There were dozens of sharks the entire time we spent in the cage. They were so magnificent.This has been on my bucket list for quite some time. There was a huge storm that rolled in and the team was so accommodating to help me move and keep this appointment knowing how much it meant to me. It was an experience I will never forget. Thank you for this priceless memory!

I booked the first session of the day.

I had heard experiences that it could be cold inside the submarine, so I brought a jacket. In the end, it wasn't as cold as I expected. If you're sensitive to cold, it's better to bring one just in case.

All the explanations were in English. I didn't understand much, but just looking at the underwater scenery was enjoyable, so I’ll take it as a positive.

There were a lot of fish, but I didn't see any sea turtles. They explained the types of fish and the ship and airplane wrecks on the seabed, but I didn't understand most of it. It might be more interesting if you research the sunken ships and types of fish in the waters around Waikiki beforehand. There were also a few divers, and when I waved to them from inside the submarine, they waved back and said, "Aloha!"

The boat ride from the pier to the submarine was quite windy, so a jacket is necessary for that part. (If you can't stand the cold, you can stay indoors...) The view of Waikiki Beach from the water was also enjoyable.

Before boarding, we took group photos, and on the return boat, they encouraged us to purchase the photos. Caught up in the excitement of seeing the underwater world, I bought them without asking the price (I think payment was credit card only?). Later, when I checked the receipt, it was about $48. After purchasing, I received instructions for downloading the photos, but when I tried to download them, it turned out it wasn't free and cost about $12 instead. ^^

朝一番の回を申し込みました。

潜水艦の中は寒いなどとの体験談がありましたので、上着を持っていきました。結果的には思ったほど寒くは無かったです。寒さに弱い人は持参したほうが安心です。

説明が全て英語でした。分からなかったですが、海の中は見ているだけで楽しいので、まぁ良しとします。

お魚がたくさんいて、ウミガメは見えませんでした。
お魚の種類や海底にある船とか飛行機の説明していましたがほとんどわかりませんでした。ワイキキの海底にある沈没船や魚の種類などを事前に調べておくともっと面白いかもしれません。
ダイバーも数人いて、潜水艦のなかから手をふったら「アロハ～」とサインしてくれました。

桟橋から、潜水艦までにいく船の上は風が強く、そちらの方で上着が必要です。（我慢できない寒さなら室内にいればいいですが、、）海上からワイキキビーチが一望でき、そちらも楽しいのです。

乗船前にグループ毎に写真をとり、帰りの船の上で写真購入を進められました。海の中をみた興奮もあり、値段も聞かず購入（支払いは、クレジットカードオンリーだったかな？）しました。後で明細みたら、48ドル位しました。購入後、写真ダウンロードの説明書をもらったので、ダウンロードしようと思ったら、無料ダウンロードではなく、12ドル位で購入でした^^;

There was a reception area right next to the parking lot at Hilton Hawaiian Village. It seemed like same-day reservations were also accepted.

When the time came, we went to the meeting point and after about 15 minutes on the boat, we arrived at the parasailing spot. My husband, who usually doesn’t get seasick, was feeling queasy because the boat was rocking quite a bit, so motion sickness medication is a must.

The parasailing itself was great, with beautiful views and it felt wonderful. Before landing, they intentionally drop you into the sea, so you will definitely get wet (laughs). A large bath towel is also essential! I bought photos for $40, but since they were mostly the same, I thought it might not be worth it.

ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジの駐車場すぐに受付がありました。当日予約も受け付けているみたいでした。
時間になって、集合場所に行き15分ほど船に揺られてパラセーリングスポットに着きました。
普段酔わない旦那さんが、船酔いに遭うぐらいとても揺れるので酔い止め必須です。
パラセーリング自体は景色もよく、とても気持ちよかったです。
着陸前にわざと海に落とされるので絶対に濡れます（笑）大きいバスタオルも必須です！
40ドルで写真も購入しましたが、同じ写真ばかりだったので買わなくてもいいかなぁと思いました。

I highly recommend visiting this place, incredibly beautiful views with emerald blue water. The service is perfect! Will definitely come back again.

We were blessed with great weather and had a great time. Our guide, Yuki-san, was happy and energetic, and we really enjoyed the experience at the sandbar. It was the first snorkeling experience for the children, and they seemed nervous, but they were able to try it even in places where they couldn't get their feet on, and they were able to see the fish with their own eyes! The hamburger we ate on board was also exceptional. We had a really valuable experience. thank you very much!

This was my first time participating in parasailing near Waikiki! Usually, I choose a parasailing package that’s a bit farther away, but this time I made a reservation for the early morning session due to the schedule of other activities. I walked from the hotel to the parasailing check-in location while enjoying a morning stroll. The muffins and coconut pound cake from the nearby coffee shop that the staff recommended were absolutely delicious! The 150 meters was indeed high and thrilling, and it was such an amazing moment that I definitely want to do it again! It has now been added to my must-do list for my next trip to Hawaii!

ワイキキのホテル近郊でのパラは初めての参加でした！
いつもはちょっと遠くまでパラとのセットを選ぶのですが、今回は他のアクティビティの時間の都合で朝一の回に予約しました。
朝の散歩がてら、ホテルから徒歩でパラの受付場所まで行きました☆
( 受付の方から教えてもらった近くのコーヒーショップのマフィンとココナッツのパウンドケーキがとっても美味しかったです)
150mは確かに高くて迫力ありましたが絶対またやりたいっ！！となる最高の瞬間でした☆
また次ハワイに来たら絶対やらなきゃいけない事リストにエントリーされました！

I participated with my spouse and friends. At first, I wondered if there would be anyone who spoke Japanese among the staff, but there was someone who spoke it fluently, which made me feel at ease to join! Since I can't swim in deep water, I thought I would skip the snorkeling, but with a life jacket on and the staff providing constant support, I was able to see sea turtles and fish safely! I was also happy that we had prescription underwater goggles available, so everyone could participate! After snorkeling, we were able to do SUP, and it was truly a satisfying tour! Among all the meals during this trip to Hawaii, the spam musubi we had on the boat was the most delicious! The hot drinks and snacks were refreshing for our tired bodies after being in the sea! Thank you so much to the staff who really encouraged us!☆\(^-^)/

夫婦と仲間で参加させていただきました。
最初スタッフに日本語話せる方が居ないのかなと思っていたら、日本語がペラペラの方がいて安心して参加できました☆
足のつかないところでは泳げないのでシュノーケルの参加は遠慮しようと思っていたら、ライフジャケットをちゃんと付けて、スタッフの方が常にサポートしてくれる形で無事に海ガメとお魚も見れました！
度付きの水中ゴーグルもありみんなで参加出来たので嬉しかったです！
シュノーケルの後にSUPも出来て本当に大満足なツアーでした☆
今回のハワイ旅行の中で船で食べた軽食のスパムにぎりが1番美味しく感じました♪
ホットドリンクもスナックも海で疲れた体に沁みました〜！
本当に背中を押してくれたスタッフの方、ありがとうございました☆\(^-^)/

Love:
- beverage and donuts onboard
- live music —> huge plus
- lots of equipment and activities
- staff are amazing! Very friendly and helpful
- love how you are almost guaranteed to see the corals and fish — great exp

What can be improved:
- the area is very limiting, so you can’t go too far with the kayak or SUP
